Bronny James lines up for USC fan event, joining his teammates with a viral dance as he gets his dad LeBron James' approval

NBA superstar LeBron James’ eldest son Bronny is looking forward to beginning his collegiate career at the University of Southern California. His future Basketball Hall-of-Famer father is fully supporting him every step of the way.

The 19-year-old freshman was with his teammates during the USC men's basketball team’s fan event at the Trojans’ home of Galen Center in Los Angeles. Bronny danced to Cali Swag District’s “Teach Me How to Dougie” song as he was introduced on the court.

The moment was captured on video and shared on social media. It has since gone viral, with four-time NBA champion LeBron James among those who reposted it on X (formerly Twitter) account.

LeBron James reposted son Bronny's participation in USC's fan event.

Bronny James is a five-star high school recruit out of Sierra Canyon and a McDonald’s All-American. Many universities sought to recruit him, but, in May, he announced that he was joining the USC program.

However, his journey with the Trojans took an unexpected and scary turn when in July, he suffered a cardiac arrest in training. It was later revealed that it stemmed from a congenital heart defect, which, thankfully, is treatable.

LeBron James and his wife Savannah were understandably scared over what their son had gone through. After days at the hospital, Bronny was released and has been steadily recovering. He's targeting to play with the USC Trojans this season.
